JOHN J

John J. Mercer Lodge No. 290 was started in 1914 with the name Benson Lodge UD (Under Dispensation) and was eventually chartered by the Grand Lodge of Nebraska the following year. We are named after Captain John Jackson Mercer (1833-1915) who was the 24th Grand Master of Masons in Nebraska. Our Lodge first met in the Odd Fellows Hall in Benson until erecting our own building in 1926 and have lived here on 59th and Maple, in the Creative District of Benson, ever since... Masonic Lodge serving the communities of Benson and Omaha, Nebraska. Visit our site to learn more about what we do as Masons and explore Freemasonry.
